How To Land a Private Equity Job
Everyone wants to break into the promised land of private equity that pays 24-year-olds over $300k… where you can work less and get paid more than investment banking.
But let’s be real, getting into Private Equity is HARD.
Why?
Lots of competition (with every young banker on the street) and NO instruction manual…
Well that all changes today! With our first-ever Private Equity Recruiting Course drop.
I spent over a year trying to break into private equity (from IB). I made every possible mistake along the way but eventually was able to crack the code.
I put this course together to give you everything you need to make your entry into private equity as FAST and SMOOTH as possible.
It includes:
Every type of interview question you’ll get asked
Modeling guidelines + detailed course for beginners
2022 proprietary compensation info (including carry data)
Scratch model, deal prep, resume template etc
7 actual modeling tests
And MUCH more…
See full course outline below.
Get instant access to the only course you’ll need to break into private equity here.
If you complete the course and don't think it armed you with all the tools you need to break into PE, email me within 30 days and I'll issue a full refund. (yes, it's that good)
Project Escape (from IB) begins today!
